Silicon carbide bushings - Import export

The extreme hardness and angular yet sharp-edged properties is typical of black silicon carbide type WIWOX® SI. It is particularly suitable to machine hardened steel and ceramics. It consists of crystalline silicon carbide, which is produced from silica sand and petroleum coke in electric resistance furnaces at temperatures of > 2.300° C. Silicon carbide is iron-free, angular and extremely hard.

The carbide bushing serves the purpose of preventing tool damage caused by pulled up slug. ADVANTAGES: — Bushings made of carbide — Carbide punches (upon request) — Avoidance of tool damage caused by scrap (pulled up slug), resulting in downtime with corresponding costs — Quality, proven millions of times — Can be produced according to specific customer drawings — Also available without slug retention
